Description
Under the Rose: Poems Written Chiefly in India by H.G. Keene is a collection of reflective and lyrical poetry composed during his time in colonial India. The poems explore themes of nature, love, exile, and the cultural contrasts between Britain and India. Keene’s verses capture both personal introspection and observations of the Indian landscape and society. Written with a colonial sensibility, the collection reveals the emotional and intellectual responses of a British official immersed in a distant and complex world.
